Six Bluetooth ANC headphones are evaluated using a scoring approach across 14 categories. The evaluation covers price, active noise cancellation, high-voice blocking, design, transparency, comfort, fit, indoor and outdoor microphone performance, mic analysis, sound quality, controls, features and app support, cases, and battery life. ANC performance is assessed using a jet-noise test, with results compared across models. Microphone tests are performed indoors and outdoors to judge call clarity. The headphones are ranked to determine which pair is best to buy, with the list limited to six top performers based on testing outcomes.
"This is an in-depth comparison between my 6 favorite bluetooth ANC headphones. I test and score the headphones in 14 categories to determine which is actually the best pair of headphones to buy."
"This video is not sponsored. No brands have any influence over this video. I purchased about half of these, some were sent to me, and I'm borrowing one pair but I probably have 15 other pairs in my office that didn't make the cut so if your favorite headphones aren't on this list, it doesn't mean they are bad, but I had to draw the line somewhere and based on my testing, these six are the best on the market right now."
"ANC Test 1 - jet noise 6 - 57 JBL - still decent, but distinctly more noise coming through 5 - 58 Sennheiser sounds lower pitched. Respectable 4 - 59 Sonos - high overtones break through, low frequencies crushed better. Probably blocks more but they are perceived to block less because high overtones break through."
